A comparison of static and moving presentation modes for image collections

In both professional and personal contexts, a common activity is the search for a target image among a collection of images. The presentation of that collection to a user can assume a wide variety of forms, and it would help interaction designers to be aware of the comparative properties of available presentation modes. A property of major interest is the percentage of correct identification of the presence or absence of the target image within the collection; another is users' acceptance of a presentation mode. Several modes of Rapid Serial Visual Presentation (RSVP) are compared for effectiveness in a number of image identification tasks, and with regard to user acceptance and stated preference. Presentation modes have been classified as static or moving. For a selected representative group of three static and three moving modes, for three image presentation times and for three tasks of increasing complexity, we report experimental results which in most cases establish, with a ...
